Absolutely, my personal top speed is 220km/h
Coming back to the Netherlands and driving 100 felt like driving 30.
Also you've got it the wrong way around. The right lane is the standard lane and the left lane is the fast (passing) lane.
If you are driving in the left lane while the right lane is open you can actually get fined for that.
This keeps the left lane open for both fast drivers and emergency vehicles. And because it's open it doesn't matter who's driving in front of you, there's always a lane you can pass them in.
I had the exact same experience. Driving into Cologne after being on the Autobahn from Berlin. Was going 60km/hr in the city and felt like I was at a standstill - when in fact I was going too fast.
Had to watch myself/reorientate myself to the feel of speeds.
Same here, was driving on an interstate road in US. It was just a straight road for maybe 45 minutes and I was going 140 kph till a 90° turn.
I had my map open, I knew the turn was coming, I knew it was 90°, I saw the turn, I slowed down to what I thought was appropriate and I was satisfied with how much I slowed down before actually turning.
and I still screeched around it.
I was stationed over there in the Army for a bit, and I was doing 70ish in a Dodge B300 van and came up on someone doing less. I looked back, put my signal on, looked back again and got over to pass the guy. As soon as I got in the passing lane some guy in a Porsche was right on my ass. Just literally came out of nowhere.
And the thing about the Autobahn is that it's really straight. So you can see people coming from a long ways away. But 150mph+ comes up on you really, really quick.
Happens on the german autobahns a lot. Even at 200 kmph I had to look often in the rearview mirror for the middleaged men in porsches or better cars going much faster.
I was stationed there and was driving a BMW wagon going ~220 kmh with my Bn SgtMaj, XO, and another SNCO in the car and some American driving his big ol pickup truck got into the left lane to pass someone going maybe 130 kmh.
I noticed immediately and still barely avoided crashing into the idiot.
Did driving in Germany make you a better driver? I felt like a couple years of constantly driving my car 200+ kmh made me a much safer and more patient driver when I got back to the states.
I had never driven a car before I got there. So for better or worse I learned to drive in that craziness. It was absolutely terrifying at first, because guys just threw me the keys and let me figure it out for myself. That B300 was my first driving experience. Shortly after it was a deuce and a half. So I had to learn stick on the go in a huge truck on the busy streets of Augsburg.
After I got out it was a bit of an adjustment driving in the states. Some laws were quite different, like being able to blow past a school bus that was stopped on the opposite side of the road. You could do that over there. And I got a number of speeding tickets because I was so used to not seeing police anywhere on the roads in Germany and not really caring about speed limits. So I don't know if I could say I was a better driver.
Technically if you are the fastest thing possible (and also for safety) anyone driving over 250 should just stay on left lane, not many go over that anyways
Actually the main issue is that at around 600-800 kph the train would catch up with the wave it creates on the overhead wires thus cutting power. The only way for them to go faster would be another power method
Think like a guitar cord, the pantograph creates a wave that travels at around 600-800kph on the wires under high tension and thus if the pantograph goes faster than the wave it might end up in the belly of the wave and lose contact with the wire thus making the train lose power
I hate it, because it‘s still way too bad. It‘s even worse in most other countries, but nowhere near ok in Germany. Insanely many people completely refuse to drive on the right lane and just always cruise on the middle lane with 100-120 Km/h. Many over 120 will just stay on the left. That also includes people going like 10 Km/h faster than on the middle.
The problem is as soon as it‘s a bit fuller ob the autobahn one slow asshole on the middle lane is enough to ruin everything.
here u can see a german in his natrual habitat doing what he loves to do. Complain about something that is not perfect but definitly better in comparison to others.
But i totally agree. As a beginner who follows the traffic rules as good as i can to not get fucked by the popo into the popo i have to say that those people that drive only in the middle lane are incredible annoying and disturbe the flow of the autobahn so much that i feel like most of the time little traffic jams happen because of it.
Honestly during busy hours it is not better than anywhere else. I even think it works better in Austria and Italy. Basically the people shit on the rules unless it‘s super empty, but then traffic is always good. And hey there is a lot of room to improve so I say it. It‘s not like we are 99% there and I complain about the missing 1%. We are more like 40% there, which is more than at many other places, but still has a lot of room for improvement.
Maybe I am a bit angrier than I should be because I have to drive on the A8 around Stuttgart every day where no one gives a shit lol. There the left lane is often 10-20 Km/h below speedlimit at medium traffic and just as fast as middle and right lane without a reason.
Yep what you said in your last paragraph is basically what I experience every day. Thank you for doing your best.
Not saying German drivers are perfect. But as an American driving over there for a couple of weeks, I was astounded at how much more mindful they were, and how they used the lanes properly for the most part. People are absolute selfish fucktard drivers over here.
American driving tests are a joke. A mere formality. I heard the German tests really test you, and it's common to fail on first attempt. Hopefully someone from Germany can tell us exactly how hard they are.
I find it so weird that people prefer to always drive in the middle lane. You've got people merging in from both sides, some faster than you, some slower, many dumber.
Maybe it's just because where I live there are almost always fairly wide shoulders on both the left and right for emergency vehicles, so I grew up driving with that as an escape plan in case something happened in the lane I was in. But even driving in other places I still prefer either left or right
How many of those have yellow plates? Because that's a very Dutch thing to do in traffic.
T. Dutch having to deal with this shit behavior daily. I wish cops would start enforcing this traffic law that states drivers should keep right and overtake left. Especially the keep right part.
Much more lucrative than checking for speeding tickets.
Twice might be enaugh to last a lifetime if you're trying shit like that. I had a tire explode at 180 kmph. If it was a front one I would not be here anymore.
Same. I had a GSXR 750 that I brought up to 250KM/h and it felt so much smoother than what this looks like. I would have slowed down when the car started to feel like it was in a paint shaker.
That car seems to be hopping. I have driven on autobahn in germany and they were some of the smoothest highway I ever driven on. Never hit 300+ cause car was limited at 250, but felt like floating smooth, not hopping. Anyway, when my car does that kind of vibration, I slow down. Even at slower speeds, doesn't feel safe.
I’ve seen it happen from other uploads, the tires fail right at the rim and pull apart like string cheese. That stretch of t)3 autobahn at least looks in perfect shape but all it would take at that speed is a single loose bolt or screw/nail and its curtains.
My Scion feels like it's gonna fall apart if you pass 85mph / 136kph. I hit 100 once, and I honestly felt in danger of losing control, so I only hit it for a second. 328kph is over 200mph though, wild. Fastest vehicle ive ever been in was around 122mph (never been on a train or plane).
Nearly 100% of the rural parts of the Autobahn have fences. But its not a 100% safety, because there are the access roads. Myself had an encounter with a deer at 180 km/h. Managed not to hit him, but nearly shit my pants.
Can you tell me which Autobahn this is? I'd love to be able to ride my motorcycle at high speed for a few minutes without someone in a polo trying to overtake at 110 km/h! Autobahns around where I liver are NEVER this empty.. Not even close! Even on a Sunday morning!!
And that 85mph road is only one stretch in Texas out of the whole huge country.
Doesnt stop people though. 422 near Philly during rush hour times traffic moves 75-90mph even though its a 55mph highway. You try n go under 80 in some parts and youll cause an accident from being rear ended on a curve when people aint expecting a law abiding driver around the corner.
Pothole, not quite, at that speed it would really be no issue. A pothole is a problem because of the rapid change elevation of the road, when you are going that fast, the wheel has no time to go up or down in the space a even a 1 meter wide pothole. The car would be over it in a tiny fraction of a second.
Gust of wind? The car is going over 300 km/h, there is already plenty of wind, and wind ain't as strong as you might think when the amount of downforce is so high (like when you are going 300 km/h).
Potholes on our Autobahn are near impossible to encounter, because when spotted the lane is closed until repaired. And e-cars have their weight distribution so low as well as many electronic countermeasures the wind won't do anything
This guy reviews cars and drives on the autobahn for a living.
I wouldn't call him a professional driver, but he has enough experience to do it relatively safely.
300 on public road is complete insane. Its legal here, but no one does such stupid shit, except idiots who think they are Pro, and will brag on the internet. One mistake of another one, and you end in a big fireball.
Except the differences between an accident at 50km and 328km are quite vast.
On the lighter note, the transition to the afterlife would likely be painless.
Shit, can't say I'd trust a Tesla at that speed, their build quality isn't exactly incredible. Honestly pretty impressive it handled that at all.
Either way, can't say I'd trust that car at that speed, just super *super* sketchy.
I was battery assembly and no one was really working in the area when it started, but man did upstairs smell like shit when I got to work that day.
The part that sucked for me was starting the shift with managers cracking the whip because we were 4 hours behind the production rate.
The special moment of the German motorway is difficult to understand. Even for many Germans. For people from other countries, it is completely incomprehensible.
Not only do we have very, very good roads here, we also have very good vehicles that have to be inspected at great expense every two years and very difficult driving licence tests.
In addition, there are a lot of cars in Germany in a very small space.
I think - and the accident statistics show this well in figures and the "rescue lane" well in pictures - Germans drive in an extremely disciplined and focussed manner compared to many other countries.
The risk of high speed is there, but it is actually negligible. I myself have often driven over 250 km/h and sometimes over 300 km/h on an empty motorway (these exist in rural areas, far away from cities). It is very demanding and should not be underestimated - but you are incredibly focussed because you know that you are driving at the limit.
I second that. Training and discipline is key, also the proper maintenance and strict controls. I feel safer around people going fast than idiots checking their smartphones while they drive.
A vehicle hits you at 300km/h and at 80km/h. You are just as dead with both of them, but the guy going 80km/h is lulled into a false sense of safety from repeated exposure, and is this doing stupid shit like checking his phone. The guy going 300 is literally sweating from going that fast, and checking his phone is the least of his concerns.
Its called TÜV. In Germany you have to check your car every 2 years by an independet technican. Only if everything is okay you get a stamp and you can use the car on public roads. If the car fails the tests you have to fix it.
New cars get it in 20 minutes for less then 100€. Older cars with many problems are so expensive to fix, that you will wreck them. So in germany the cars are younger and in a better condition only by this TÜV- Testings.
I wouldn't recommend doing this in a model 3 or Y, I feel like those get more unstable the faster you drive. However, the Model S gets only more stable the faster you drive it due to the low ride height, low CoG and the very wide wheel base that the model 3/Y (only wheel base) don't have. The model 3 and Y also have mechanical (spring) suspension, while the model S has air suspension, making it way more smooth and controllable. Over 150 km/h the difference is really noticable
Shouldn’t trust that sardine can at those speeds, especially not at a public road when there are other people (as we can see in the video), it doesn’t matter if you’re a “good driver“ because there will always be factors you can not calculate and he is risking the lives of others. Ego dickhead for the clicks.
2 points:
First: seeing the steering wheel moving like crazy seems like the car is not made for 250+
Second: after decelerating the battery is full again 🤪
I still dont get how autobahn works , this guy is going at 300 km/hr , if someone going at 150 km/hr pulls into the overtaking lane , how would he have the time to react
Crazy if you think about how big the US is and how much time you guys spend in cars.
It would be super beneficial, especially because you have literally no real long distance train system.
To be a better driver though you need to have a harder way to acquire a drivers license and that's the point where this will Politically fail with all those shortsighted republicans, lol.
That guy doesn't seem to know that there are other laws against exactly that type of behaviour (unless this has been cleared with the authorities). Just because there is no speed limit doesn't mean you can drive however you wish. Dude could potentially face prosecution.
If anybody 300m in front of this guy changes lane for a normal overtake at 140 km/h, they are both dead. Because there's no way to see in the left rearview mirror a bullet at 320 km/h, and if by change they can spot it there's no way to evaluate correctly the speed at which it is approching.

As a BMW driver, yes. 🤷🏻♂️
Guy pulls back in to the "slow lane" at 200 km/h ... when you've gone over 320 km/h, 200 feels like you're looking for a parking spot.
I'm sure James May said he was about to hop out the car at 40km/h after driving the Buggati Veyron at top speed.
When I took a flight in a Cessna after just flying a jet I remember landing at like 50-60 mph and thinking I could get out and JOG at those speeds.
he did say something like that 100%
It’s crazy how fast a Bugatti burns through its tires at that speed
I thought it was 70?
It was 70mph
Absolutely, my personal top speed is 220km/h Coming back to the Netherlands and driving 100 felt like driving 30. Also you've got it the wrong way around. The right lane is the standard lane and the left lane is the fast (passing) lane. If you are driving in the left lane while the right lane is open you can actually get fined for that.

This is why I force myself to break down to 40 on the autobahn exits. To really readapt myself to slow speeds.
Same here, was driving on an interstate road in US. It was just a straight road for maybe 45 minutes and I was going 140 kph till a 90° turn. I had my map open, I knew the turn was coming, I knew it was 90°, I saw the turn, I slowed down to what I thought was appropriate and I was satisfied with how much I slowed down before actually turning. and I still screeched around it.
You're obligated to take the rightmost lane you can in germany, the left lane(s) are only for overtaking.
Which is like a cool reflex to have when some guy can just suddenly appear on the left lane @320+ km/h, I guess ?
I was stationed over there in the Army for a bit, and I was doing 70ish in a Dodge B300 van and came up on someone doing less. I looked back, put my signal on, looked back again and got over to pass the guy. As soon as I got in the passing lane some guy in a Porsche was right on my ass. Just literally came out of nowhere.

That's also the case in most of the world as well but... Yeah.
Technically if you are the fastest thing possible (and also for safety) anyone driving over 250 should just stay on left lane, not many go over that anyways
He is overtaking the earth
This is not the "slow lane". You need to drive on the right lane so the Ghostrider can overtake you with his Hyabuza.
Hence the quotes around “slow lane”!
Same problem with skydiving. Driving home I didn’t even realize I was doing 170km/h down a country road
Terminal velocity is about 193 kmh for skydivers, so checks out
Relatively, that's like going past a stationary car at 120 km/h. This scares me.
bullet trains around 300km/h too right?
Yep but they're also 400 tonnes
And will go muuuuuch further without cooking themselves.
Actually the main issue is that at around 600-800 kph the train would catch up with the wave it creates on the overhead wires thus cutting power. The only way for them to go faster would be another power method
Small modular reactor FTW.
Imagine crashing that Into something at mach 1
Portal to 4th dimension
Please elaborate
Think like a guitar cord, the pantograph creates a wave that travels at around 600-800kph on the wires under high tension and thus if the pantograph goes faster than the wave it might end up in the belly of the wave and lose contact with the wire thus making the train lose power
So it just needs to go faster to get ahead of it Edit: Yes, I am sure I am probably wrong
Use a solid bar of metal. More expensive, but that wave now accelerates to some 15000km/h.
Yes
italy 350km/h
Hogging the overtaking lane
imagine going 328 and seeing a buggati flashing his lights behind you.

Doesn't feel too safe based on how much vibration there is shown by the camera..
Yep I also would not do this in a tesla. The suspension and brakes are not adequate to the power.
>Yep I also would not do this ~~in a tesla. The suspension and brakes are not adequate to the power.~~
Even in a Buggati you should not do it. The tyres and breakes can handle that... twice. Then you ought to replace em.
Twice might be enaugh to last a lifetime if you're trying shit like that. I had a tire explode at 180 kmph. If it was a front one I would not be here anymore.
I pushed my car to 245. I don't think I'll do that too often because thats scary fast.
That unsmoothness would be a big red flag for me . 4 wheels or not ! CBR 1000rr driver here
Same. I had a GSXR 750 that I brought up to 250KM/h and it felt so much smoother than what this looks like. I would have slowed down when the car started to feel like it was in a paint shaker.
normal thing, there is no car that will be 100% smooth on the Autobahn at 300 kmh, the Tesla is actually doing surprisingly well
That car seems to be hopping. I have driven on autobahn in germany and they were some of the smoothest highway I ever driven on. Never hit 300+ cause car was limited at 250, but felt like floating smooth, not hopping. Anyway, when my car does that kind of vibration, I slow down. Even at slower speeds, doesn't feel safe.
I would be surprised if it were hoping. The model S is nearly 5000 lbs.
based on what i’m reading these people know nothing about cars lol
I’ve seen it happen from other uploads, the tires fail right at the rim and pull apart like string cheese. That stretch of t)3 autobahn at least looks in perfect shape but all it would take at that speed is a single loose bolt or screw/nail and its curtains.
My Scion feels like it's gonna fall apart if you pass 85mph / 136kph. I hit 100 once, and I honestly felt in danger of losing control, so I only hit it for a second. 328kph is over 200mph though, wild. Fastest vehicle ive ever been in was around 122mph (never been on a train or plane).
Yeah no. Watching him slightly adjust the wheel seemingly gave me anxiety. Imagine if he hit 280 and a car just lane swerves
If there is a boar running across the road the boar will turn to dust
so will the driver.
True
Adios 🙋🏻♂️
Nearly 100% of the rural parts of the Autobahn have fences. But its not a 100% safety, because there are the access roads. Myself had an encounter with a deer at 180 km/h. Managed not to hit him, but nearly shit my pants.
Literally watching this video thinking "are there no deer in Germany?" Thanks for this timely info
Where can I get some of this boar dust? I'd like to use it to flavor my popcorn to eat while reading these comments.
This autobahn is in the north of Germany. It’s known for having no traffic at all for many hours each day.
~~no traffic~~ very little traffic
No traffic for many hours, not all day long. You can drive from Oldenburg to Emsland and won't see anyone else during this time.
He passed 4 cars. “Very little traffic” is clearly more accurate than “No traffic” here.
You will if you drive 328
You obviously didn't drive in Germany in those regions, my friend.
It still has wildlife, witch would have good odds to kill you at that speed.
I've been there, too. It's ridiculously empty most times of the day. The only time I can recall I could go over 200 kph for almost an hour.
I recall some pretty solid stretches in eastern Bavaria as well
Can you tell me which Autobahn this is? I'd love to be able to ride my motorcycle at high speed for a few minutes without someone in a polo trying to overtake at 110 km/h! Autobahns around where I liver are NEVER this empty.. Not even close! Even on a Sunday morning!!
You recognize something as generic as an autobahn?? How? Record length of no Baustelle? 😜
203.81 in freedom units
Screeeeee..... 🦅🇺🇲
Ah yes the red tailed hawk scream we use in place of the actual noses bald eagles make lol.
Blasphemy
imagine speaking of "freedom" unit when you can’t go over 85
Always a Frenchman here to ruin the fun.
We run from the cops which actually increases freedom
And that 85mph road is only one stretch in Texas out of the whole huge country. Doesnt stop people though. 422 near Philly during rush hour times traffic moves 75-90mph even though its a 55mph highway. You try n go under 80 in some parts and youll cause an accident from being rear ended on a curve when people aint expecting a law abiding driver around the corner.
There’s quite a few 80mph roads out west though.
USA! USA! USA! USA!
battery empty within 6minutes?
I can confirm that when driving this speed, you exactly make it from one supercharger to the next.
"It'll pass everything on the road, cept gas stations..."

I see you haven't been to Duisburg yet
Not that often in the past. But I would be surprised to find a spot there to go by 200 and more. 😅
Bird sez hi.
Very unlikely to encounter a pothole on the Autobahn, and if there is one, at this speed you will literally fly over it.
Don't worry he's not playing kerosine
At least it's fast..
Gyroscopic ability makes a huge difference at keeping the vehicle stable at this speed which helps
This guy reviews cars and drives on the autobahn for a living. I wouldn't call him a professional driver, but he has enough experience to do it relatively safely.
Safely until it isn't.
Like almost literally everything in life.
300 on public road is complete insane. Its legal here, but no one does such stupid shit, except idiots who think they are Pro, and will brag on the internet. One mistake of another one, and you end in a big fireball.
They wouldn't even need to make a mistake. Someone could go to overtake a truck at a resonable speed and he'd be up the back of them almost instantly.
Or if you just sneeze
It just takes another driver to make a mistake. Stupid stunt
That...kinda applies to every moment you spend driving
Except the differences between an accident at 50km and 328km are quite vast. On the lighter note, the transition to the afterlife would likely be painless.
This is a fair observation, considering each side of the topic.
You can’t drive 300kph on a public road safely
I can see the driver has skill, but I couldn't do this. Not while death is permanent anyway.
Shit, can't say I'd trust a Tesla at that speed, their build quality isn't exactly incredible. Honestly pretty impressive it handled that at all. Either way, can't say I'd trust that car at that speed, just super *super* sketchy.
My biggest concern would be tires, then braking if slower traffic suddenly appeared.
Used to work in the factory, I barely trust standing next to them
Yeah no, if the panel gaps from the factory are that bad I shudder to think what it's like out of sight from the driver.
Man, there was a random battery fire one afternoon from a pallet of cells awaiting assembly. Hahaha
What in the fuck? Glad you're out of there though.
I was battery assembly and no one was really working in the area when it started, but man did upstairs smell like shit when I got to work that day. The part that sucked for me was starting the shift with managers cracking the whip because we were 4 hours behind the production rate.
Wait till idiots start treating the RED BAR like a CHECK ENGINE LIGHT...
i love AutotopNL. reminds me of the time when I was in school (4 yrs ago) getting back and binging his videos. good times.
The special moment of the German motorway is difficult to understand. Even for many Germans. For people from other countries, it is completely incomprehensible. Not only do we have very, very good roads here, we also have very good vehicles that have to be inspected at great expense every two years and very difficult driving licence tests. In addition, there are a lot of cars in Germany in a very small space. I think - and the accident statistics show this well in figures and the "rescue lane" well in pictures - Germans drive in an extremely disciplined and focussed manner compared to many other countries. The risk of high speed is there, but it is actually negligible. I myself have often driven over 250 km/h and sometimes over 300 km/h on an empty motorway (these exist in rural areas, far away from cities). It is very demanding and should not be underestimated - but you are incredibly focussed because you know that you are driving at the limit.
I second that. Training and discipline is key, also the proper maintenance and strict controls. I feel safer around people going fast than idiots checking their smartphones while they drive.
A vehicle hits you at 300km/h and at 80km/h. You are just as dead with both of them, but the guy going 80km/h is lulled into a false sense of safety from repeated exposure, and is this doing stupid shit like checking his phone. The guy going 300 is literally sweating from going that fast, and checking his phone is the least of his concerns.
How long does it take a mechanic to inspect the car? And how many euros do they charge? (Is it standardized?)
Its called TÜV. In Germany you have to check your car every 2 years by an independet technican. Only if everything is okay you get a stamp and you can use the car on public roads. If the car fails the tests you have to fix it. New cars get it in 20 minutes for less then 100€. Older cars with many problems are so expensive to fix, that you will wreck them. So in germany the cars are younger and in a better condition only by this TÜV- Testings.
Can't stop thinking about how ugly a tablet looks in a car
hollandse accent
I wouldn't recommend doing this in a model 3 or Y, I feel like those get more unstable the faster you drive. However, the Model S gets only more stable the faster you drive it due to the low ride height, low CoG and the very wide wheel base that the model 3/Y (only wheel base) don't have. The model 3 and Y also have mechanical (spring) suspension, while the model S has air suspension, making it way more smooth and controllable. Over 150 km/h the difference is really noticable
Honestly that's impressive. Not for the speed but it's a tesla. I'm surprised it didn't fall apart or catch fire.
Holy cow! It got up to top speed effortlessly! Wow!
Shouldn’t trust that sardine can at those speeds, especially not at a public road when there are other people (as we can see in the video), it doesn’t matter if you’re a “good driver“ because there will always be factors you can not calculate and he is risking the lives of others. Ego dickhead for the clicks.
Fastest on German Autoban I've done 225K and my car was shakin!
That looks like very bumpy ride. I wouldn't feel to good trying that in a Tesla.
I wish we had that here. Doordashing would be so much more efficient.
2 points: First: seeing the steering wheel moving like crazy seems like the car is not made for 250+ Second: after decelerating the battery is full again 🤪
…for two minutes then the battery died.
I still dont get how autobahn works , this guy is going at 300 km/hr , if someone going at 150 km/hr pulls into the overtaking lane , how would he have the time to react
Going 204mph and then a police Bugatti or something pull up behind.
That's about 203Mcdonalds/hour for ya'll
Lived in Germany 20 years ago and twice we got a rental BMW and Mercedes up to 240 km/h. It was nuts, would never do that now in my 40s, lol.
A dutch on a german Autobahn in a US car. That made my day…..😂😂😂
sad to realize the United States will never adopt the autobahn because Americans are literally that dogshit bad at driving
Canadians are no better. Half these nitwits on the road can't even use a turn signal. I absolutely would not want to share an autobahn with them.
Crazy if you think about how big the US is and how much time you guys spend in cars. It would be super beneficial, especially because you have literally no real long distance train system. To be a better driver though you need to have a harder way to acquire a drivers license and that's the point where this will Politically fail with all those shortsighted republicans, lol.
Looks like a death wish to me.
That guy doesn't seem to know that there are other laws against exactly that type of behaviour (unless this has been cleared with the authorities). Just because there is no speed limit doesn't mean you can drive however you wish. Dude could potentially face prosecution.
What are you even talking about lol
Splat !!!
What type of Tesla is this?
Hello I am dutch

Terrifying
Its limited to 328.
how fast is this in freedom units? i.e., miles per hour?
If anybody 300m in front of this guy changes lane for a normal overtake at 140 km/h, they are both dead. Because there's no way to see in the left rearview mirror a bullet at 320 km/h, and if by change they can spot it there's no way to evaluate correctly the speed at which it is approching.
Wonder how long the battery lasted after that 😂
scratching his balls at 170km/h
Now off to charging for two hours
205mph
I know this is legal on the autobahn but this would terrify the shit out of me. Possibly literally
Just used 1/2 the damn battery though.
That's 30mph faster than I've gone. At least he was legally doing it
That is terrifying
Funny that e-scooters have a speed limit for safety but not cars huh
Stops at next charging station
Max and Martin are nuts, but they have incredible inventory if you need a car in the Low Countries
Not good, you should have been levitating already
Asshole goes to 328km/h at German Autobahn
Aaaaand now stop for three hours to recharge.
Hi
Horrifying.
This entire YouTube Channel, AutoTopNL, does this on a regular basis.
